“While it is the end of the season, there are still 7,800 containers of fruit that need to be shipped from the ports of Durban, Ngqura, and Cape Town, which could be impacted,” Chadwick said.Workers at the state-owned ports and railway operator embarked on a strike a week ago, with the United National Transport Union and the South African Transport and Allied Workers Union demanding increases of up to 13.5%.
, stating that the strike may cause a dent in its projected R3 billion export revenue this season, which is currently at its peak. “The CGA will be engaging daily with both Transnet and growers on contingency plans to mitigate the impact of the strike on the movement of citrus fruit through the ports" Chadwick said.
